Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Rosanna's daddy had a car she loved to drive

Stole the keys one night and took me for a ride

Turned up the music just as loud as it could go

Blew out the speakers in her daddy's radio

[Verse 2]

She was shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

Snappin' her fingers (Oh-oh-ooh-oh)

She was movin' 'round and 'round (Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

That girl was shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh)

[Verse 3]

We started drinkin', weren't thinkin' too straight

She was doin' eighty and she slammed on the brakes

Got so high we had to pull to the side

We did some shakin' till the middle of the night

[Verse 4]

Shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

Snappin' her fingers (Oh-oh-ooh-oh)

She was up and down and 'round and 'round (Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

Shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh)

[Verse 5]

Shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

(Oh-oh-ooh-oh)

(Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

(Oh-oh-ooh-oh)

[Verse 6]

I got real nervous

She took her coat off

She looked so pretty

Aw, yeah

[Verse 7]

I'm always talkin', maybe talkin' too much

I love that little girl and I just can't get enough

You take some lonely night with nowhere to go

Just call Rosanna, it's a hell of a show

[Verse 8]

And she's shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

Snappin' her fingers (Oh-oh-ooh-oh)

She'll be movin' 'round and 'round (Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

Oh she's shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh)

[Verse 9]

Shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

Snappin' her fingers (Oh-oh-ooh-oh)

She'll be movin' up and down, 'round and 'round and 'round (Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

And shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

[Verse 10]

Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-she was shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-she was shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh)

Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-she was shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh)

Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-she was shakin' (Oh-oh-ooh-oh)
